Is the role of Dessalines and the other developers who work on Lemmy (the only FOSS substitute for Reddit) as important as the role of those people who organize leftists in real life? (lemmygrad.ml)

Does the online left and the developers who make the online left possible, have an important role in the fight against capitalism or are we all just wasting our time instead of putting more time into real life organization?

We need places that don’t censor us, that we can confidently post things and organize on. Especially when things get more spicy here in the states.

Almost all ActivityPub content is public, and permanently so, which will become more of a liability the spicier things get.

Liability why?

Because it will be used to know our plans and hunt us down and used as evidence for blacklistings and kangaroo courts.
